out and talked to me and millions of others! As a long time supporter of his I've heard his positions and watched his speeches over and over! One would think I would be tired of hearing much of what he says at these rallies, but each time he gives me a feeling of optimism. As one who has just about "had it" with all that has gone on for WAAAAAAY too long, and all that I've seen that has brought America down, I'm always happy for the lift he gives me.
I know in my heart that if he isn't the nominee I will become extremely depressed and have that same sinking feeling that has been a cloud over so many of us for so long. Living in Florida I won't be able to help him by voting in a Primary, but I will write his name in for the GE! I feel that perhaps this will be my last time being an "activist" in our political process. It has been corrupted like I've never seen. I know our history has had corruption before, but to me none that has been as devastating as what has transpired in such a short time.
As I've said almost a hundred times before, what has gone on here in America has made me very very cynical about what I feel Democracy is about. I don't think I can ever be convinced that The Idiot, Decider EVER won either election for POTUS, and living in the county that I live in, I also think we experienced even MORE fraud in 2006.
The loss of 18,000 plus votes is NOT comprehensible and even though I volunteered to help Christine Jennings in her fight to seek redemption, it has come to nothing. IMHO, our Supervisor of Elections here is almost worse than Katherine "Cruella" Harris, who I had to endure as a representative for 2 terms. And that's really quite a statement to make. Any personal contact I've had with her has ALWAYS been contentious and she's totally lacking of any warmth or caring. I'm sure it's because I have a "D" behind my name, but fairness IS NOT something she tries to achieve.
So seeing John & Elizabeth Edwards almost makes me want to "hope" again!! I don't use the word HOPE anymore, but if given a wish... my wish is that America will be able to see and understand that he wants to work FOR "we the people" and regardless of past mistakes (we've all made some bloopers) I think he DOES want a better America! And he CAN'T do it alone, and he CAN'T do it in the first 100 days... he NEEDS us to help! So if you can, PLEASE DONATE... he's trying to raise 1.5 million before January 3rd. Even though I have little to give I will do it what I can right now.
Please DONATE, now! Thanks!
